There are about 7 and a quarter million known cases of COVID-19 worldwide, but we now have enough time under our belts to start using CLOSED cases in an attempt to hone in on just how bad this thing really is. There may be many, many more cases due to people who never showed symptoms or whose infection was not detected in a test. Accepting that fact for what it is but still pressing on...

Of the 7,237,929 cases, there have been 409,630 deaths. Out of all the closed cases, that's about 10 percent mortality. But there are 3,263,207 OPEN cases. What if they all get better? In the unlikely event that were to occur, then we'd divide 409 thousand by 7.24 million and have a case fatality rate of 6.7 percent.

It's hard to say what the rate would be if the unidentified cases were to be included. Lower, but how much lower is anybody's guess. the Case Fatality Rate (CFR) is based on known cases though, and it looks like the CFR is going to float in somewhere between 6.7 and 10 percent.
